== Hints and Tips ==

* Customise KDE applications' appearance via '''kcontrol'''


=== Using MusicBrainz with mp3s ===

By default, using the "Fill-In Tags Using Music''''''Brainz" with an mp3 reports this error: ".mp3 is not a supported filetype".

To rectify this:

* Install the codec for playing mp3s (see '''[[UbuntuHelp:RestrictedFormats]]''')
* Recompile libtunepimp

 <pre>
mkdir libtunepimp
cd lintunepimp
apt-get source libtunepimp
cd libtunepimp*
fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage
</code>

* Use deb-reversion from the devscripts package to prevent automatic upgrade

 <pre>
sudo apt-get install devscripts
cd ..
deb-reversion libtunepimp2c2a_*.deb
</code>

* Save and close the changelog in the editor that is launched by pressing Ctrl + O, Enter, then Ctrl +X .

* Install the new version of libtunepimp
 <pre>
sudo dpkg -i libtunepimp*local.1*.deb
</code>

To make Amarok your default CD player:

* Open Amarok's 'Settings' menu, then 'Configure Amarok' > 'Engine' > 'Audio CD Configuration'<br>
 For default device enter:
 <pre>
/dev/cdrom
</code>

* Go to System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media > Multimedia > Audio CD Disks
